Microporous and Mesoporous Solid Catalysts, Volume 4

This series offers practical help for advanced undergraduate,graduate and postgraduate students, as well as experienced chemistsin industry and academia working with catalysts in organic andorganometallic synthesis. It features tested and validatedprocedures, authoritative reviews on classes of catalysts, andassessments of all types of catalysts. Micro- and MesoporousSolid Catalysts describes the use of zeolites and mesoporoussolids as catalysts for the production of fine and specialtychemicals.* Specific tips and hints are provided and some typicalprocedures are described in detail* In addition to discussing the pros and cons, several majororganic transformations are examined including aromaticsubstitutions, heterocyclic ring formation, amines synthesis,oligomerisation, oxidation and hydroxylation, and otherregioselective and stereoselective reactions* Features tutorial introductory chapters, including tips andhints for achieving successful organic transformations* Important reactions are featured together with recommendationsto resolve potential problems.
